Role
In "School Raze Part 1-2" the Mane 6 go to Tartarus and ask Tirek why magic is disappearing. After, he gets annoyed by Pinkie Pie so he will help them escape.

In "The Beginning of the End Part 1-2, Gregory brings Tirek, Queen Crystalis, Crazy Glue and King Samba to his lair. Tirek becomes annoyed by them all getting his name wrong.
